Discuss the rationale for these actions by these firmsDefine leverage, explain the different types of leverage utilized by companies with global operations.However, the above assessment is incomplete. Although one probably should not say that certain marketing methods are domestic or international, it still does not mean that the international dimension should be neglected. The shortfall with the discipline-based approach is that the disciplined-based courses as designed and taught in American business schools at the present time are ethnocentric.V. Open question (共 25 分)When desirable, there is nothing wrong with using expatriate personnel who are well qualified and knowledgeable of the company's product, technology, history, and policies. The difficulties, however, are many. Some expatriate personnel find it difficult to cope with a new and unfamiliar businessenvironment. Also the expatriate's family must also share in the burden of makingsocial adjustments related to shopping, schooling, and the limited entertainment opportunities. Also the expatriate may fear that the distance from the headquarters may eliminate chances for promotion.To minimize the problems, the personnel for overseas assignments must be selected carefully. Their families should also be interviewed to determine the suitability of their temperament for an overseas assignment.I.

(1 分) A global strategy is built on an information system that scans the world business environment to identify opportunities, trends, threats, and resources. (1 分)Minicases:(每题10 分,共20 分)pared to Americans, Asians are more group- oriented, more family-oriented, and more status-oriented. As such, a marketer of an American product needs to be careful in utilizing such appeals as individualism, independence, and equality. Instead, the emphasis should be on groups, families, and status.2.Direct mail is largely undeveloped in many countries. This is especially true where illiteracy is high and where labor is cheap, making it easy to use a salesperson to make sales calls. Still despite the small volume, the use of direct mail is growing rapidly in many countries. It can be expected that list owners may develop more confidence in the rental process of their lists and that government regulations may permit companies to have more flexibility in collecting personal information and developing lists on a more sophisticated basis. It is thus not unreasonable to expect growth in the use and popularity of direct mail.IV.Open question (共 25 分)The purpose of this question is to get students to recognize the varying usage and buying motives of a relatively simple product一一coffee. At first, the students may be at a loss to see why any questioning is even necessary, and they probably do not know how to ask questions. Not until after talking to foreign students or other foreign-born persons will they realize that there are many different kinds of coffee coupled with varying buying motives.The questions would be as follows.How is coffee used-in bean form, ground, or powdered? If it is ground, how is it brewed? Which coffee is preferred-- Brazilian Santos blended with Colombian coffee, or robusta from the Ivory Coast? Is it roasted? Do the people prefer dark roasted or blond coffee? The color of Nestle,s soluble coffee must resemble as closely as possible the color of the coffee consumed in the country. Do the Germans drink coffee after lunch or with their breakfast? Do they take it black or with cream or milk? Do they drink coffee in the evening? Do they sweeten it? In France, the answer is clear: in the morning, coffee with milk; at noon, black coffee一一i.e., two utterly different coffees. At what age do people begin drinking coffee? Is it a traditional beverage, as in France, or is it a form of rebellion, as in England and Japan, where the younger generation has taken up coffee drinking in order to defy their tea-drinking parents?4.By marketing in a foreign country, must a firm automatically utilize geographic segmentation or other segmentation bases?IV.Minicases:(每题 10 分,共 20 分). Many consumers consider direct mail as junk mail, a term that is offensive to the direct marketing industry. What is your assessment of the future of direct mail overseas?1.Befbre becoming IBM's chairman and chief executive officer, Louis V. Gerstner, Jr. was a vice-chairman of American Express.

Inside the store, n boom boxes" and camcorders are displayed on pedestals as if they were art objects, and the Walkman is displayed on trendy mannequins. The gallery includes alife-size mock-up of an apartment with a built-in Sony home theater system. Some retailers are concerned that Sony might turn out to be both their supplier and competitor. How should Sony deal with this concern?参考答案:I.

(1 分)Under an OEM agreement, the MNE provides the know-how and sometimes equipment to a supplier that must provide the product according to the standards of authorized technology. (2 分)IH. Answer the following questions in English :(每题 5 分,共20 分)1.Gray market products are those imported by an unauthorized party. Gray marketing may be illegal in the case that the protection is granted to an independent American trademark owner. In general, however, it is legal to import and sell gray market goods.In spite of all the criticisms, gray marketers do serve usefulmarketing functions. For manufacturers, gray marketers help distributing surplus goods and perform some of the service functions. As a matter of fact, many manufacturers tolerate or even encourage the practice of gray marketing. For consumers, gray marketers provide an alternative-- essentially the same product for a lower price. They promote the free enterprise system. The discrepancy of prices in two countries for the same product causes gray marketing to exist which in turn narrows the price differential. Gray marketers thus bring about more uniform prices.2.There are several reasons why MNEs place their trademarks on products made by foreign firms. First, they may be able to create a unique product by bundling or unbundling product attributes. Second, the strategy guarantees that MNEs cannot be bypassed by theirsuppliers. Third, they can avoid fixed production costs. Finally, the strategy offers these firms brand loyalty, bargaining power, and price. Foreign manufacturers also have their own reasons for agreeing to place other firms,brands on the products. One benefi t is the ease in gaining market entry and dealers,acceptance which may allow a larger market share overall while contributing to offset fixed costs. Another advantage is that there are no promotional headaches and expenses. Finally, the strategy prevents other competitors from making this same product for these customers.3.Leverage is some type of advantage that a company enjoys by virtue of the fact that it conducts business in more than one country. (1 分)Experience transfers, scale economies, resource utilization, global strategy. It can draw on management practices, strategies, products, advertising appeals, or sales or promotional ideas that have been tested in actual markets and apply them in other comparable markets. (1 分)The global company can take advantage of its greater manufacturing volume to obtain traditional scale advantages within a single factory. (1 分)A major strength of the global company is its ability to scan the entire world to identify people, money, and raw materials that will enable it to compete most effectively in world market. (1 分)A global strategy is built on an information system that scans the world business environment to identify opportunities, trends, threats, and resources. (1 分)It must be stressed that the introduction of a product to a foreign market does not mean that market segmentation (geographic or otherwise) has been automatically employed. If consumers in a number of countries have the same desire, their nationality and geographic locations are irrelevant and do not require these countries to be treated as separate markets or segments.IV.M inicases:(每题10 分,共20 分)Direct mail is largely undeveloped in many countries. This is especially true where illiteracy is high and where labor is cheap, making it easy to use a salesperson to make sales calls. Still despite the small volume, the use of direct mail is growing rapidly in many countries. It can be expected that list owners may develop more confidence in the rental process of their lists and that government regulations may permit companies to have more flexibility in collecting personal information and developing lists on a more sophisticated basis. It is thus not unreasonable to expect growth in the use and popularity of direct mail.1.This of course is an indication of ethnocentricity. Citizens and corporations of many countries however do not see any need to make this split. To them, international business is a natural occurrence. International marketing complements domestic marketing, one being the natural extension of the other. As such, smart marketers look at domestic marketing and international marketing as being highly interrelated--both of which they must encounter everyday in conducting business. It is thus dangerous to believe that there is a certain point which domestic marketing ends and international marketing starts.V.Open question (共 15 分)Sony,s effort is a good illustration of the benefits and problems derived from having multiple or parallel channels. On the one hand, it employs middlemen in its regular, long channel. On the other hand, it has begun to add thesecond and direct channel From manufacturers ,standpoint, it is only natural that they all want to utilize all channels that can contribute to corporate sales and image. In the case of Sony, such a goal becomes even more critical because the consumer-electronics business is maturing. Sony claims that the purpose of the Chicago Gallery is to further strengthen its positive image by offering in-depth product information, demonstrations, and services. The Gallery showcases Sony ,s full product line, including new Sony technologies that many retailers have yet to carry (e. g., Data Discman-books on compact discs ). Because retailers, as a rule, emphasize price rather than product features, Sony wants to make the demand for its product less price elastic. According to the president of Sony Consumer Products Group, Sony must explain why its products deserve to be ''higher-value purchases.,z The Gallery allows the firm to explain its premium technology for image building. In other words, the new channel is more of a promotional tool than a distribution tool. From the perspective of Sony's retailers, it is hardly surprising that they have a cause for concern: their own supplier may take sales away from them and may create price war which hurts profit margin. To allay such fears, Sony has stated that the goal of the Gallery is not to make money but rather to make consumers comfortable with Sony ,s products, making them want to buy Sony ,s products regardless of the retail outlets. If this goal is accomplished, it will benefit both Sony and its retailers. To assure retailers that Sony is not a competitor, Sony's Gallery sells products at full retail price and even steers shoppers toward local Sony dealers who usually have lower prices. This strategy, if executed properly, should allow Sony to bolster its positive image, keep its premium price, minimize dealer conflict, and maintain dealer loyalty. I.

Answer the following questions in English :(每题 5 分,共 20 分)It is erroneous to state that domestic marketing and international marketing are similar in nature but not in scope. This is not unlike stating that national marketing and local marketing, except for the scope, are similar.International marketing is not domestic marketing on a larger scale. Whereas domestic marketinginvolves one set of uncontrollable variables, international marketing has at least two sets which interact with each other. Furthermore, the variables in each set are not identical in terms of number, degree, or kind.1. Such standard marketing techniques as market segmentation and product positioning are universal in the sense that they can be used locally as well as internationally, and they can be applied to both products and services.As in the case of international banking, except for the very large banks, most banks simply cannot be everywhere and may not offer all banking products for everyone. Therefore, some kind of market segmentation is necessary in order to satisfy certain customers very well instead of trying to be all things to all people. At the least, these banks wi11 use geographic segmentation by selecting the countries they want to be in. Furthermore, they may use demographic segmentation in order to cater to a certain kind of banking clientele. Banks also use product positioning. Some position themselves as experts in raising a certain kind of capital in a certain part of the world; others position themselves as multinational banks which can offer all kinds of global banking services. 1. host country3. multinational company5. licensing7. emerging market9. nicher2 global sourcing 4. price discrimination 6. promotion 8. product adaptation lO.distributor 11 .合资企业 13. 15. 17. 19. 汇率 价值链 套期保值 交钥匙协议 12.全球扩张战略14 一手资料16原产国18全球业务单元20市场开发2.Under an international licensing contract, a licensor grants a foreign licensee the rights to use the licensor s intangible asset such as its patent, trade mark, or know-how.

Another advantage is that there are no promotional headaches and expenses. Finally, the strategy prevents other competitors from making this same product for these customers.IV. Minicases:(每题 10 分,共 20 分)Even demographics may have problems in terms of conceptual equivalence because of the varying frames of reference. A demographic variable such as sex is universal. Age, however, is not always considered in the same way--the Chinese include the time during pregnancy in their age. Education level, likewise, does not have the same meaning everywhere. The meaning of primary school, grade school, secondary school, high school, college, and university vary greatly. It is thus wise in many instances to ask about the number of years of schooling attended by the respondent. 1.This case is challenging in two aspects--whether it is desirable to split domestic from international and whether a certain educational approach is geocentric or ethnocentric. The subject matter covered here is highly related to the first assignment. Several well-known business schools see no need to offer international courses, with the rationale that the basic disciplines and principles of marketing, management, and so on are universal. As such, they argue that marketing is marketing, and there should be nothing which is domestic or international about it. The discipline-based approach may appear to be appropriate on this count.。

Business Case (10 points for each question)The objective of the not-for-profit organization, disAbled for Access & Justice, is to advance the cause of disabled individuals in the Lancaster, Pennsylvania community.These efforts had met with both success and failure in recent years. Through the use of the threat of a suit under the Americans with Disability Act, Lancaster had recently been forced to install curb cuts at a cost of close to $3 million. Bringing this suit had burned some valuable social capital with the city’s officials who were under constant pressure to control real estate taxes. The organization’s leaders had also met privately with several new businesses in the downtown business district and convinced them to install access ramps. The group’s eventual goal, is to make Lancaster’s downtownbusiness district totally accessible to individuals in wheelchairs. This would require extensive marketing efforts targeting many different individuals and groups. They now need to convince their target “customers,” the city and the local businesses to buy their idea and spend the money needed to make total accessibility a reality rather than adream.43.The non-profit organization, disAbled for Access & Justice must determine an appealor theme that will produce the desired response. There are three types of appeals:rational, emotional, and moral. Which would you suggest they use?AnswerdisAbled for Access & Justice could use any of the three types of appeals. A rational appeal would include a cost-benefit analysis of access improvements being offset by gains in new revenues or elimination of lost revenues. Another element of a rational appeal would be the implied threat of legal action for noncompliance with the law. The emotional appeal is probably the easiest to visualize. Finally, a moral appeal is justifiedby the appealing to the local business owner’s sense of what is “right” and “proper”.44.How might the buyer-readiness stages model guide the promotion planning atdisAbled for Access & Justice?AnswerThe first issue with disAbled for Access & Justice is to make local businesses more aware of the problem. After awareness comes knowledge of what can and must be done to provide access to those who presently do not have it. It is necessary to accomplish a sense of buy-in to the concept of accessibility among the retail business community. Remember, the product here is more an idea than a physical product.。

(4)AnswersModify the productModify the marketRepositioning2 c) Which pricing strategy would you suggest to Guru, skimming pricing or penetration pricing at current product life cycle stage? Explain why. (6 marks) AnswersThere is no right answer. As long as students indicate 3 reasons, they get the points.Penetration Pricing.a. Setting a low initial price on a new product to appeal immediately to the mass market is penetration pricing, the exact opposite of skimming pricing.b. The conditions favoring penetration pricing are:Many segments of the market are price sensitive.A low initial price discourages competitors from entering the market.Unit production and marketing costs fall dramatically as production volumes increase.c. A firm using penetration pricing may:Maintain the initial price for a time to gain profit lost from its low introductory level.Lower the price further, counting on the new volume to generate the necessary profit.d. Penetration pricing may follow skimming pricing:A firm might initially price a product high to attract price-insensitive consumers as well as recoup initial R&D costs and introductory promotional expenses.Then, penetration pricing is used to appeal to a broader segment of the population and increase market share.Skimming Pricing.a. A firm introducing a new or innovative product can use skimming pricing, setting the highest initial price that customers really desiring the productare willing to pay.These customers are not very price sensitive. They weigh the new product’s price, and quality against the same characteristics of substitutes.As consumer demand is satisfied, the firm lowers the price to attract another, more price-sensitive segment.Skimming pricing gets its name from skimming successive layers of “cream,” or customer segments, as prices are lowered in a series ofsteps.b. Skimming pricing is an effective strategy when:Enough customers are willing to buy the product at the high initialprice to make these sales profitable.The high initial price will not attract competitors.Lowering price has only a minor effect on increasing the sales volumeand reducing the unit costs.Customers interpret the high price as high quality.These four conditions are most likely to exist when patents orcopyrights protect the new product or its uniqueness is understood and valued by consumers.。
